Default Launching at high rpm ?

Kind of a loaded question but does anyone have any thought or exeirience on how well the transfer case and driveshafts (front and rear) hold up durring high stall launches in 4hi? Ill be testing the limits but want to be aware of the do's and dont's ahead of time. I think my tranny (performabuilt) will be ok just not sure about all the other drivetrain componets. Yes im n/a but at the same time the truck weighs right around 5k lbs. Any thoughts? New converter is 9.5 stalling @ 3000.

I have stalled mine to everything it will hold dozens of times. The only thing that cries are tires.
